This home has a warm heart and an easy flow which is great for families of all ages. Meander up the garden path that leads up to the patio, a real suntrap all year round and then on through the front door. Immediately to the left is the lounge with built in storage and a picture window that looks out over the mature front garden. A glass sliding door separates the lounge from the combined kitchen/dining room and a sunroom/office which also overlooks the front garden. The kitchen is original but tidy with a single dish drawer, walk-in pantry and a lovely outlook over the back yard to the lifestyle block beyond. The main hallway leads to 3 double bedrooms, all with built in wardrobes, family bathroom and a separate toilet. The internal stairway leads down to the full basement where there is a 2nd toilet, large laundry with access out to the rear yard and an extra storage room. The huge garage area will appeal to the blokes with room for at least 3 vehicles, the hunting and camping gear and workshop area. The home is well insulated and along with the log burner in the dining there is a large heat pump in the living room and an HRV system to ensure a warm dry atmosphere throughout. Outram is a very popular village with excellent local amenities that include the popular primary school, Cafe, Medical Centre, 4 Square, Library, several specialty shops and an enviable micro-climate and all just a relaxing 20 drive from the city.

Often sought but seldom found this property offers a generous 4048sqm (1 acre) of land with a great house and 3 small paddocks in a rural setting providing ample space for various outdoor activities, growing healthy children, gardening projects or the construction of that dream shed/garage complex. The house boasts four double bedrooms and open plan living areas provide plenty of room for a busy family and having multiple bedrooms and bathrooms can be a significant advantage for larger families. A walk-in pantry is a highly desirable feature in this modern kitchen as it offers ample storage space for dry goods, kitchen appliances, and other essentials while keeping them organised and easily accessible. The central island bench is not only a functional workspace for meal preparation but also a social focal point and casual dining option. A set of French doors open out from the kitchen to a sunny north facing deck, very handy when hosting a BBQ on a summer evening. A mudroom/bathroom/laundry combo is a great practical feature as it serves as a convenient space for discarding muddy gumboots, coats, school bags etc and prevents dirt and clutter from entering the main living areas of the house. The property has undergone recent major renovations, including double glazing, new roof, upgrades to plumbing, electrical systems and insulation. A log-burner, gas hot water and 2 heat pumps ensure the property is up-to-date and more energy efficient. The property's location is convenient, with Outram just a 2km drive from the gate and Mosgiel approx 9km away so you can enjoy the rural setting while being close to local amenities. I have lost count on the times I have been asked for 'Just an Acre' so don't be slow because as this is your opportunity to own one.
